Who Would Have Thought

My dear husband just recently graduated from college. Woohoo! I was super excited to have an actual income instead of living off "student income". For those of you who have been there, you know what I mean. And for those of you who have never lived on a "student income"... it's... interesting, to say the least. For 5 years I longed for the day when we would have actual health benefits, a steady income, and no homework. Since my husband is an accountant, I never imagined that there would be any other benefits... until my husband came home with this...

Do you know what those are? They happen to be ROLLS of VINYL. Precious, sticky, beautiful vinyl that was going to be tragically thrown away. You see, my husband's company deals with TONS and TONS of vinyl. Part of his job is to keep track of inventory, and when he saw that these were going to be thrown away, he knew instantly that he needed to rescue them and give them to his beautiful wife. Do you see that inside one of those red rolls of vinyl is ANOTHER roll of vinyl? Oh, and that's not all...

This is what he brought home to me! I was absolutely beside myself! How could anyone throw this away? There is over $800 retail value of vinyl here! There is even glow-in-the dark vinyl! Who know that 5 years of schooling would lead me to so much joy? Forget the steady paycheck, fabulous hours (he works 7:30 to 4:00 Monday through Friday. No overtime, no weekends, and no holidays!), and the health benefits! I get free vinyl! Oh yeah!
